CHRISTMAS is virtually on the doorstep. Over the past few weeks; East Lancashire Newspapers has
; jHHMd up with Leisure in Burnley to provide advice and handy hints on how to shape up for Christmas and the new year.
This week Alan Simpson, from the Thompson Centre, Burn-

ranging from the familiar hi/lo, step and aquacise to newer fads like slide,
boxcrcise and spinning. Many sports and leisure centres
offer beginners’ sessions and these are an ideal introduction to group exercise. There are also refresher courses for anyone who has not exercised for a
while. Instructors should be on hand to
advise on the type of class that is right
